Integration into the mymaps.gov.au environment will:
• seamlessly link to the GeoNetwork Australian Spatial Data
Directory
• allow viewing of research data in an information rich
environment
• upload your own (spreadsheet etc) data to map (Map
Intelligence Express)
• researcher focus: making the most out of a place name(s) to
create new links within and across disciplines
